What a random feature request. In case you're not aware, you can open control center, long-press on the flashlight icon and you get to adjust the brightness of the flashlight. If you're not already at the max level, you might get a slightly (but definitely not much) stronger flashlight on your current phone.
Completely digital, but this might be of interest : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IxDoO9oODOk
https://www.objc.io/issues/22-scale/ has some nice articles.
I think it's more interesting to look at the range of prices from a company you've actually heard of. Take ASUS for example.
ASUS makes the current nexus 7 ($199) : http://www.google.com/nexus/7/ But they will also sell you another 16GB, 7" tablet for $99 ASUS MeMo Pad : http://www.amazon.com/ASUS-MeMO-ME172V-A1-GR-7-0-Inch-Tablet...
Perhaps the lesson here is, by going back a generation, you can halve the price of a tablet. As we've hit the $199 mark for 7" tablets for some time now, $99 tablets from brands you actually know should be no surprise. As the price of these tablets fall to 150 and lower, one generation older tablets for 75, 60 or even 50 will become the norm.
Ahhh, they shut it down already. It was a page with links to login to their JBOSS admin pages and such. You needed passwords, of course, but still, not the sort of thing you want clients to randomly stumble across.

UI note -- it's annoying to have the annotation box at the very bottom of the page preview popup. Often, I will try to clip only the top potion of a page, however, due to the div structure, I will end up with a really long clip. This means item view is relatively useless at it involves too much scrolling. However, in tile view, I can't edit the keywords. When I click to open an item, I'm stuck with scrolling to the bottom of this very 'tall' clip to get to the annotation box.
